Cardiff City FC is delighted to confirm the signing of Junior Hoilett.The Canadian international winger has signed a deal until the summer of 2017 and will link up for a second time with Neil Warnock having previously played for the City Boss at Queens Park Rangers.

Kieran Richardson became Neil Warnock's fourth signing , arriving as a free agent after recent spells with Fulham and Aston Villa. It was the culmination of a remarkable nine days at Cardiff City Stadium as new boss Warnock wasted no time in replenishing his squad.

All attention now turns to the clash with Bristol City on Friday night, where Bluebirds fans will no doubt turn out in their thousands in the hope of seeing some of their new heroes in action.

But what shirt numbers will Cardiff's arrivals be wearing when they make their Bluebirds' debuts?

Junior Hoilett - 33

Hoilett was number 23 for most of his time at Queens Park Rangers and was confirmed as the Bluebirds' official no.33 by the club this week. The shirt was briefly worn by former Celtic forward Tony Watt last season, during his short stint in South Wales.

Sol Bamba - 14

Bamba takes the shirt vacated by Federico Macheda, who left the Bluebirds by mutual consent in the summer. The Ivory Coast international seemingly prefers the no.3 which he wore at Leeds United. But that now belongs to Joe Bennett, who took the shirt off Middlesbrough-bound Fabio Da Silva.

Marouane Chamakh - 27

He was number 29 at Arsenal and Crystal Palace, but young defender Sami Ajayi stood in Chamakh's way at Cardiff City in turns of retaining the Moroccan's favourite number. With Brian Murphy no.28 and Ben Wilson 30, Chamakh took the next closest option. Hopefully a change in number will trigger a change in fortunes for the previously-misfiring ex Eagles' striker.

Kieran Richardson - 15

The versatile former England international has worn various numbers throughout his lengthy career. From Number 23 at Manchester United to number 18 at Aston Villa. But 15 appears to be Richardson's favourite -- he wore the same number at West Brom and Fulham. Question marks remain over where in Warnock's system Richardson will fit, but the 31-year-old at least retains a familiar squad number.
